Question / Help OBS Windows 10 Issues?

[lyman]

Hi,

I'm very new to obs and streaming. I tried to stream csgo on twitch but my csgo was too laggy but obs was running fine.When I stream on windowed fullscreen it was ok but when i play on fullscreen thats when I drop frames. I mean a lot of frames. It's pretty much unplayable. I followed some videos on how to setup obs and also my friend helped. I asked a streamer how he was able to stream csgo on fullscreen without lagging so much. He said in Settings>Videos> Check Disable Aero. Now my friend was having the same issue but he just streamed in windowed fullscreen and I told him what the streamer told me and he was able to check this option and it indeed helped him. But it is grayed out for me. The only reason this might be is because I'm running windows 10 and he is running windows 7. Is this true? Are Windows 10 users really unable to stream? I doubt this but I would like a confirmation.

Thank you.

Windows 10 users can stream perfectly fine.

But please post a log.

Here you go.

Reduce the webcam resolution to something reasonable and also limit csgo's fps.

Tried it. It didn't work. Are there anything else i can try? Or is it really windows 10 o.O?

Also why is disable aero grayed out for me? Is it because of Windows 10?

 

[Harold]

Any problem that COULD be solved by disabling aero ONLY HAPPENS ON VISTA AND 7.

 

[BosnianArmy]

Windows 10 doesn't have Aero if I'm correct, only Windows vista and 7 has this but maybe I'm wrong. Anyways post your specifications from your computer or laptop?

 

[Harold]

You're not correct. Windows 8 and up solved all the problems with aero from 7 and vista.

 

[lyman]

Can someone please confirm that it's grayed out because I have windows 10. If so I'll just pick up a copy of Windows 7.

 

[Harold]

FIXATING ON THE AERO SETTINGS WILL NOT SOLVE YOUR ISSUE.

Any problem that could be solved by disabling aero in 7 would not actually occur in windows 10 even with aero enabled.

Your issue is elsewhere.

Are Windows 10 users really unable to stream?

Windows 10 users are able to stream perfectly fine.

So what do you think my issue is with streaming csgo on full screen?

 

[Harold]

Reduced framerate ingame isn't the same as dropped frames.
Dropped frames is to do with network conditions.

CSGO likes running wild and eating your entire cpu's available power if you let it. Capping your FPS to a SANE level (ideally the refresh rate of your display or a little higher) helps a lot.

SLI'd cards can cause the problem as can having the OBS window on a separate display from the game (nvidia cards tend to not handle this well)

Other things that could cause the problem:

Conflicts with Game Capture: Other capture programs, Razer Synapse (disable heatmaps), graphics mods like ENBSeries and SweetFX, and any type of software or utility that displays an in-game overlay like EVGA Precision, MSI Afterburner, TS3/Mumble overlays, Dolby Axon, Raptr, Overwolf, etc. If you use D3DGear it must be uninstalled completely.

Lowered csgo settings and disabled sli.
Still same issue.
Game is super laggy/unplayable.
